Kevin Hepworth (Daily Telegraph): The FG range is grand, the G6E Turbo sublime. Simply the best car ever made in Australia.

Paul Gover (Herald Sun): At the end of the day, Ford Australia has done an exceptional job on the new Falcon.

Neil McDonald (Herald Sun): Is this perhaps one of the best Falcons ever? Sure it's the top-end model but even the entry FG Falcon XT is a superb driver's car.

Keith Didham (Hobart Mercury): Simply the best car by an Outback mile to wear a home-grown Ford badge. Excellent combination of power, handling, comfort and quality.

Mark Hinchliffe (The Courier-Mail): Simply the best Falcon ever built and perhaps the best car made in Australia. It combines all the elements of a safe family car.

Stuart Martin (Adelaide Advertiser): Without a doubt the best Falcon to roll out of Broadmeadows, perhaps even the best-ever Australian-made car.

Neil Dowling (Perth Sunday Times): Europe would be proud to call this its own in all departments... How did this delightful family car ever rise from the bureaucratic mire of Ford?

Karla Pincott (carsguide.com.au): Not only the best Ford Australia has built, but also a contender for the best car Australia has built. Full stop.

And whilst this award holds as much value as the background music in porn movies, its good to see FG get the accolades it deserves. No doubt, other will follow.

So, when the factory closes down, that's a good time to swap the ute over :spoton:

Because it's the best car built by Ford. FPV is considered a different manufacturer (same as Expensive Daewoo and HSV).

Also, the G6E is a hi-po luxury model, the FPV is a sports model (different market segments).

Journos will rarely say a sports model is the best, as it has smaller market appeal than the luxo models.

Sooooo, it's not actually better in any way shape or form?

Looks = F6

Power = F6

Handling Setup = F6

Value = F6

But most importantly

Not looking like a jazzed up XT = F6

sh*t I should work for carsguide.
